Opinion polls and 2019

Paul Bongiorno must have more faith in opinion polls than I do. If a Morgan poll claims that Penny Wong is Australia’s most credible federal politician (“Everything going up, except Morrison’s chances”, April 30– May 6) then who is the least? I do know that an Albanese government will contain many former members of past Labor regimes, of which Penny Wong is one. Disunity is death in politics but so is hubris. For your paper to propagandise federal Labor before the election is arrogant. We all recall how certain Labor was in 2019 when it believed it had the election in the bag. Let’s not celebrate before the outcome like last time.
